We are living in an age in which the relationship between reading
and space is evolving swiftly. Cutting-edge technologies and
developments in the publication and consumption of literature
continue to uncover new physical, electronic, and virtual contexts
in which reading can take place. In comparison with the
accessibility that has accompanied these developments, the medieval
reading experience may initially seem limited and restrictive,
available only to a literate few or to their listeners; yet
attention to the spaces in which medieval reading habits can be
traced reveals a far more vibrant picture in which different kinds
of spaces provided opportunities for a wide range of interactions
with and contributions to the texts being read. Drawing on a rich
variety of material, this collection of essays demonstrates that
the spaces in which reading took place (or in which reading could
take place) in later medieval England directly influenced how and
why reading happened.
